This play is written for PLAYlist a regular portmanteau theatre season, where writers are asked to write plays inspired by particular songs on a certain theme; the stipulation is that the plays should be the same length as the songs.

It was directed by Derek Bond and performed by Simon Darwen, Abigail Andjel and Santa Claus Himself.
